Erica, the way you're talking makes it sound like plushies are srs bsns with release dates and special collectible lines and everything like that. I just thought plushies were plushies, I didn't realise there was such an official structure to it.

They are! :P I was a fairly serious collector for a few years of Pokemon stuff and I used to keep up with a whole bunch of release lines, companies, etc. I only stopped because it was taking up too much of my money to be paying such close attention so now I mostly just pay attention to the Pokemon Centre releases. ._.;

But any plush that's not a custom will be part of some sort of release. Some people care about that, some people don't... but a lot of collectors do find it's important to have some sort of bearing on what plushies come from which companies or when they were released. It makes it way easier to find something in particular if you're looking for it and you know all its details. :P

Welcome Hooh54! For some reason that plushie you posted reminds me of Okami . I'm not sure what Amaterasu is, not being familiar with much Japanese stuff, so if that actually is from Okami then I'm doing better than I thought!

They're the same thing, Amaterasu is the main character in the game Okami. Technically, her full name is Okami Amaterasu, the Shinto goddess of the sun. Interesting tidbit: Okami can mean either wolf or great god in Japanese depending on how it is written.

In any case, THAT IS ONE OF THE MOST AMAZING PLUSHIES I'VE EVER SEEN. EVER.

I honestly love Oshawott, so the plethora of Oshawott plushies around is a great thing for me! :3 I'm gonna try and collect as many Oshawotts as possible. That's my new goal!

In other news, I actually found that Raichu for sale! Except I found it 15 minutes after the auction finished... I got a little depressed there for a while. Like, really depressed. Then I got mad. Then I remembered that custom Raichu tutorial I saw a week or so ago. Then I got determined. Then... well, this happened:

Spoiler:

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I CAN'T BELIEVE I WAS ABLE TO DO THIS! Three days of work and a hell of a lot of patience gave me this cutie! He's about 17 inches tall, and the tail is around 3 1/2 feet long. AND HE'S SO SOFT AND I MADE HIM BY MYSELF! (With a little help from my mom... she's awesome)

Anyways, it's late, I'm tired, and my new Raichu buddy is screaming to be cuddled. Sleep time now.

Yeah, I maeded him! :D It took a lot of time though, and a good bit of frustration. I used that tutorial, and the pattern that came with it. I ended up using fleece for most of the fabric except for the belly and feet pads, which are some type of fake fur or something.

Also, of note: SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOFFFFFTTTTTTTT! This big guy has basically dominated his echeladder and reached the top rung: Cuddley-Buddy Ultimate!

PC Username: CirnoYour Favourite out of of Your Plushies: My huggable Lillipup Banpresto plush ~ The Plushie you would most want in the whole wild world ever: A decently large Whimsicott made mostly from the goodness that is minky fabric ;o;

@wingman11: omg, I love it!! Really want to try making my own sometime. D: Its tummy looks so soft!

Thanks! It was difficult, but fun to make. The tummy is made of a fake fur stuff, so yeah, it's pretty soft. I've also been considering trying my hand at a Banette plush, but I can't seem to find a proper pattern.

In a completely off-topic question, is anyone here also on PKMNCollectors over at LiveJournal? I've decided to join up over there in an effort to expand my buying options and have another place to talk plushies.

PC Username: Artificial-Insanity
Your Favourite out of of Your Plushies: I can't just pick one D: I guess Chip. XD and also, my Doremi plushie :3
The Plushie you would most want in the whole wild world ever: Dragonair, Dratini, Lucario, Riolu, Victini, and a LIFE-SIZED TAILS PLUSHIE.

Spoiler:

these 4 just happened to be next to me.. XD Up front is my cherished Doremi plushie :3 got her online for like, 10 bucks! =O
on top of the Gamecube are Olive-Chan and Chip :3
The old man in the back on top of the Genesis is Chip's Grandpa, Greyheart. (GREYHEART IS SO SOFT AND SQUISHY AND OMGEEEE~~)
and yes, I have a Sega Dreamcast! and while grabbing Doremi I accidentally ejected the XBox disc so I'm at the title screen of Sonic Unleashed. XD

...... which reminds me, I have THIS beauty!
WEREHOGGY SONIKKU PLUHIE!!! <33333
He's the most expensive plushie I own-made mom pay like 30 or 40 bucks on him! Worth it? YES! <333
And for the record, I keep him in his plastic bag most of the time so he doesn't get dirty. (not like Werehoggy Sawnikku would be out and about with everyone anyway)

... now, where was I? Oh yes. next to my computer is my shelf of goodies (mostly Sonic stuff), and on said shelf is...
My Jirachii, Manaphy, Blaziken, Meowth, Chimchar, and Seal plushies!
Chimchar was my first Pokemon plushie. I bought him at that TRU Manaphy event way back when!
Jira and Mana I bought at Target
Meowth I found at a yardsale, Blaziken I won at a little carnival thingy at a FireHouse (how fitting. XD)
Seel I found 2 identical ones in a random thrift store. I kept one and gave the second one to my buddy... who just so happens to be an Official Pokemon Professor! :D
I also have a 12" Talking Piplup, but he lives with my Dad <3

AAAAAAAND my pride and joys: (this bed is a FULL-size. They are THAT big!)
Pyuuchuu is the giant Pika. I won him from a shooting game at the town Carnival. Zoro, the Zorua, I won from the same Carnival, but at a Ring.. Bottle.. Fishing.. Thing.. game...
Big-T, the big Tails plushie, I won from a claw machine! :D
hiding behind the pillow is Sonicbear, my large Sonic Plushie. Beware, he is EVIL! :O
Hiding behind SB and in front of Zoro is an evil Alvin the Chipmunk plushie name Elvin. XD
and the smaller Sonic and Tails plushies are just.. Sonic and Tails. XD around thier necks are the magical myserious Chaos Rings =O
The piggy is called Baconbits, the Doggy is Bob, and that bunny has no name. XD

Vappy's Hoppip is amazing, as is everything Artificial-Insanity posted XD. But I think the real cake goes to wingman's Raichu, because he is wearing a bow-tie and there is nothing on this earth more adorable than something small and cute wearing a bow-tie

A-I, I love your Tails plushie as well! That looks amazing, it looks like it shot directly out of the Sega screen! =O

I'm gonna get around to posting my plushies soon guys, I promise. It's just a matter of remembering and getting them out (I don't have a big room so I can't really display them, they're mostly in my closet).

I think that's the wonder of plushies; you don't have to know if it's male or female, you can decide that for yourself! My favourite plushie that I've had since I was born (which I named Scrap after the stuffed dog on Play School) is a boy, but before he was mine he was my sister's, and back in those days he was a girl named Elizabeth

In any case, he/she's cute as hell and it's awesome when there's a sentimental story behind it :D

So, I mentioned I was going to receive a larger package later in my last post, right? One that happened to contain what I considered my grail? Well, it came in today. And it was quite larger than I had expected. Why? Because it was carrying this:

According to my measurements and Serebii.net, he is life size. Which is 20 inches tall. Which is WAY bigger than I originally thought Oshawott was supposed to be. And dear lord, the material he's made out of is softer than anything I've ever felt before. It's like minky mixed with fleece mixed with fur mixed with CLOUDS FROM HEAVEN ASDLNGASF;HGAJSDFNAVSJ

So yeah, today is the best day ever.

Oh, and one more picture to close this off.

Spoiler:

BEST BED EVER HANDS DOWN NO COMPETITION. Just... a;shdag;bnjfan;odfigajas;flngbsudfh. That is all.
